The answer to this question would be: 3.125%

Half-life is the time needed for a radioactive molecule to decay half of its mass. In this case, the strontium-89 is already gone past 5 half lives. Then, the percentage of the mass left after 5 half-lives should be:
100%*(1/2^5)= 100%/32=3..125%

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

2%

Explanation:

Original mass of water in glass = 10 ounces

amount that evaporates each day = 0.01 ounce

number of days = 20 days

Total amount that evaporated = 0.01 x 20 = 0.2 ounce

percentage of water that evaporated during this period = 0.2/10 x 100

                            = 2%

<em>Hence, the percentage of the original amount of water evaporated during this period is 2%</em>
